WINONA, Minn. – Another 1,100 volunteers signed up for a second round of searches, in the afternoon, for missing Winona mother Maddi Kingsbury. The Winona County manager of emergency services, Ben Klinger, put the total at 1,860 for the day. People queued single file to register at search headquarters in suburban Goodview for Winona County segments of the search and in Rushford for Fillmore County segments. They were told to look for for anything that could be a clue. Hundreds of items were recovered and logged for analysis. Most, however, appeared unrelated to the Kingsbury case. A second day of searching, again with morning and afternoon rounds in both counties. Registration can be online or at the Goodview and Rushford assembly points.
Maddi. Vanished after dropping kids off at their Winona daycare nine days ago.
